Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 1626: Incarnation Battles Guo Yang

Shi Hao began taking the medication.

He picked a flower petal, then swallowed it.

Before long, powerful energy began surging within him, along with a mysterious factor that was restoring his lost Life Origin.

Not too much, but it replenished at least a few thousand years of his lifespan, and, supported by the medicine, he gained a deeper understanding of the Way of the Water Origin.

Of course, what Shi Hao valued most was the improvement in his cultivation.

Very soon!

Shi Hao smiled, finally he hadn’t wasted a century.

It only took him three months to completely refine the petal, though he couldn’t push his cultivation to the mid-fourteenth star, he wasn’t far off.

He picked a second flower petal and began chewing it again.

Huh?

He appeared slightly surprised because he "sensed" someone.

Guo Yang!

This was the strongest disciple under Heavenshatter Immortal Venerable, who had broken the Immortal King limit and was on the same level as Mo Jianxin.

However, compared to before, this guy had made significant progress, almost... hmm, on the verge of stepping into the quasi-Immortal Venerable realm.

Shi Hao assessed, through the antennae of Little Star Universe, he instantly grasped Guo Yang’s entire foundation.

A moment later, Guo Yang appeared.

Since Shi Hao concealed all his aura, with Little Star Universe providing cover, even someone like Guo Yang couldn’t detect him, so until his eyes saw Shi Hao, he realized there was another person here.

Shi Hao!

He paused at first, then revealed an enthusiastic battle intent.

Ever since his battle with Shi Hao, he had stayed in the Forbidden Land without leaving.

He aimed to break through to the quasi-Immortal Venerable realm, giving it a shot.

—He didn’t want to follow the life path set by Heavenshatter Immortal Venerable, he wanted to control his own destiny.

Thus, he had remained in the Forbidden Land, intending to break through to the quasi-Immortal Venerable, even achieving Immortal Venerable status!

"Shi Hao!" Guo Yang shouted, "I never thought I’d meet you here! Perfect, I want to battle you again!"

Previously he was only a twelve-star Immortal King, not that he couldn’t progress, but because he was suppressed by the Immortal Venerable, sending him into slumber.

Now, of course, this restriction had been lifted, and in the Forbidden Land he wasn’t lacking resources—he needed much less energy to advance compared to Shi Hao.

So, he was now a thirteen-star Immortal King.

With his exceptional talent, his real combat power reached fifteen stars, equivalent to a quasi-Immortal Venerable level.

Of course, it could only be considered the weakest quasi-Immortal Venerable.

Nonetheless, he had touched the edge of the quasi-Immortal Venerable realm, so he could anytime further advance to truly become a quasi-Immortal Venerable.

From Immortal King to quasi-Immortal Venerable, it seemed like immense progress, but actually, there wasn’t a change in the great realm, more so an increase in rules.

—For Immortals, rules inherently are far more significant than power.

Therefore, the leap requires no preparation, insight, and it’s naturally crossed.

Shi Hao was refining Immortal Elixir, with no time to care for him.

With a thought, an incarnation emerged.

"Play with you." the incarnation said.

Wh-what!

Guo Yang was about to explode with anger, who was he?

Immortal Venerable’s direct disciple, and the most promising one, confined with a Seal, awaiting his time to take over!

Otherwise, he would’ve perished in the long river of time, not someone of this era at all.

So, faced with such a powerful existence, Shi Hao surprisingly responded with just an incarnation?

How much do you look down on me?

"Fine! Fine! Fine!" Guo Yang repeated the word fine three times, his face full of chilling anger.

You defeated me once, does that mean you can humiliate me at will? That you can look down on me?

No!

Looking at Shi Hao’s incarnation, fine, he was a defeated general, had no courage to offer.

Yet, if he shattered this incarnation, could Shi Hao still sit idly?

"Get lost!" he charged forward, throwing a punch at Shi Hao’s incarnation.

Boom!

Shi Hao took it head-on, but his incarnation only possessed ten-star combat power, though pushing past the limit, compared to Guo Yang, there was still a five-star gap!

With just one blow, Shi Hao was knocked back, then swiftly shattered.

Facing off directly, with a five-star power gap, wasn’t that courting death?

Shi Hao was unconcerned, he condensed another incarnation.

Bring it on.

This time, the incarnation actively charged at Guo Yang, condensing, combining Immortal King Path Rules in his hands.

"You’re still not giving up?" Guo Yang raised an eyebrow, swinging another fist.

Boom!

Shi Hao was once again knocked back without suspense, but to Guo Yang’s surprise, this incarnation didn’t crumble.

How could that be?

He clearly saw Shi Hao’s incarnation was only a ten-star Immortal King—yes, having incarnations reach ten stars, Shi Hao was indeed extraordinary, but his combat power was fifteen stars, offering a solid five-star crushing advantage, logically, a single hit should shatter Shi Hao’s incarnation, like before.

What’s happening?

Shi Hao chuckled, simply gathering, reorganizing the Immortal King Path Rules.

The strength of Immortals, ninety percent comes from Immortal Rule, thus gathering Immortal King Path Rules naturally boosted combat power substantially.

However, no matter how Path Rules are reorganized, a five-star gap is still too vast, he was entirely outmatched.

No worries, lack quality, make up with quantity.

Whizz whizz whizz, countless incarnations flew out from his body, one hundred, one thousand.

A thousand should suffice, any more couldn’t strike simultaneously.

Dammit!

Seeing this, Guo Yang’s expression darkened.

Condensing incarnations isn’t difficult, an Immortal King can easily achieve it, but condensing incarnations that break the Immortal King limit is incredibly impressive, and a quantity exceeding a thousand is simply monstrous.

As powerful as he was, to evolve incarnations at the Immortal King level, he could at most achieve ten.

This was only possible because he broke the Immortal King limit, otherwise, not even one was feasible.

Shi Hao?

A thousand incarnations.

What kind of monster is this?

Bang, a thousand incarnations simultaneously charged at Guo Yang, since all were Shi Hao’s incarnations, their cooperation naturally exceeded any combination’s harmony.

Bang bang bang, a thousand incarnations launched punches, assailing Guo Yang from all sides relentlessly.

Guo Yang hurriedly countered, after all, he held a five-star power advantage, what did this mean?

In theory, Shi Hao would need to evolve ten thousand incarnations to match!

However, ten thousand incarnations couldn’t strike simultaneously, thus, the five-star gap remained unsolvable, even with just a thousand or even ten thousand, he was like a tiger in a flock of sheep, able to ravage at will.

Yet, the reality was entirely different from expectations.

Shi Hao’s every incarnation was far stronger than anticipated.

He was indeed being matched by a thousand incarnations!

What does this mean?

Shi Hao’s incarnations... had combat power as high as twelve stars.

Twelve stars!

Without even using an Immortal King Artifact, how could the combat power suddenly increase so much?

Moreover, even using an Immortal King Artifact shouldn’t raise power beyond the limit.
